Dr. Roger Boatwright, MD

After months of trying to get over charged refunded, I received my over charged of 20.00 co-pay and 71.00..back. It would have been nice to get a letter saying sorry, we made a mistake. I will miss Dr. Boatwright as a Dr. Please check your bill. Alot of senior citizens don't .

Although I like Dr. Boatworth's demeanor, during my last physical in September, 2020, he failed to give me a rectal exam my prostate. I have BPH (Benign Prostate Hypertrophy). Because I've had BPH for many years, I've learned that a PSA (Prostate-Specific Antigen, which is done by bloodwork), is not as accurate as a rectal exam. Dr. Boatman is the first doctor I've ever had who didn't give me a rectal exam since I learned of my condition many years ago. I'm 71 years old, and I know that PSAs are not as accurate as a rectal exam. Because I've had this problem, starting from a relatively young age, I know that what I say is current, according to the best of my knowledge. If Dr. Boatman is squeamish about giving rectal exams, I hope that he will do so in September of this year, 2021.

I had my annual physical exam with Dr. Boatwright on 1/13/21. We reviewed the status of my diabetes so, he ordered blood work for the following day to develop a strategy to bring my blood glucose under control. The check-out receptionist refused to order it saying that the insurance company would not pay for it because they pay for lab work only once a year. I would have to pay it from my own pocket. I asked her to check with doctor and she came back with the same answer. I don't have my blood work.

Dr. Boatwright has always been very thorough in handling my case. He listens and provides clear explanations.
